From the user perspective it would be nice to have independent selections for individual images/documents. This does not happen for me in 2.8.2. -- Burnie ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list

As long as you are able to resize the first selection it is in fact not created. The selecting tool is engaged making the selection. Trying to create another selection will therefore close the former attempt. If the selection is finished it is another task. The tool is ready for another job. Try: Create a selection in image one. Click another tool in the toolbox. Then move to image two, activate the selection tool again and create a new selection. The selection in image one is still there.

If I simply do a selection, and switch to other image and do another selection there, yes, the first is gone. However, if after first selection I click once with the mouse in the middle of the selection (I don't know what that actually do), then going to the second image etc. will not wanish the first selection on first image. 2.8.4 here, on Windows.

Click another tool in the toolbox. Then move to image two, activate the selection tool again and create a new selection. The selection in image one is still there. Then shouldn't the selector commit to the first image before getting itself engaged on the second? Current behavior is that it aborts the first selection, which is NOT desirable behavior. Do this: 1 - On any convenient image, create a selection. Note the asterisk that appears in the title bar (image dirty). 2 - Try to close the image and GIMP will prompt to save changes. Cancel. 3 - Toggle QuickMask to view the selection channel. Notice that as of step 2, even though the selector is still engaged it is treated as a change to the image status (because changing a selection channel does this). Now do this: 0 - Create any two convenient images. 1 - Create a selection on image 1. Note the asterisk in the title bar (image dirty) 2 - Try to close the image and GIMP will prompt to save changes (cancel this). 3 - Go directly to image 2 and create a selection. 4 - Notice how (in multiwindow mode) the asterisk disappears from the title bar on image 1. 5 - Close image 1. This time, Gimp does NOT prompt to save changes like it did in step 2. That is totally a bug, but it gets even better. Replace step 5 with something stupid (like a Hurl noise filter) and notice how it affects the whole image instead of only the area selected in step 1 (which, as step 2 verified, WAS present). -- Stratadrake strata_ran...@hotmail.com Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth. ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
